629: Chapter 629 A Chilling Speculation

"I remember it should be like this!"

Su Yun extended his hand, and points of misty light shimmered at his fingertips.

Afterward, following the flow path of the Dao power he had memorized earlier, he traced a corner of mysterious patterns in the air before him.

Even just a corner of the pattern was already incredibly complex.

Furthermore, with Su Yun's current cultivation base, it was not enough to comprehend the Dao contained within those dao law patterns.

Therefore, he only traced the shape of that dao law pattern; it did not contain any power of the Dao.

After all, only an Immortal could comprehend the power of the Dao.

Beside him, Xie Yulan's eyes widened, watching Su Yun's series of movements closely.

Seeing him studying a complex pattern with extreme seriousness.

She suddenly felt a bit curious in her heart; her pink lips moved, wanting to say something, but she forcibly swallowed the words back.

After all, Junior Brother Yun was busy, and seeing his expression was so serious, this pattern must be very important, so she had better not disturb Junior Brother Yun!

Thinking of this, Xie Yulan changed her posture, resting her cheek on her jade hand, leaning sideways against the jade table nearby, her beautiful eyes fixed straight on Su Yun, not moving her gaze for a long time.

Meanwhile, Su Yun looked at the pattern before him and fell into deep thought.

He vaguely felt that all the dao law patterns on the stone platform at that time were not complete.

Perhaps they were part of some Formation.

As for what Rank of Formation it was, it must be an Immortal Formation.

Only an Immortal Formation would have such terrifying aura and manifestations.

It seemed he could not figure it out on his own; he would have to ask someone who might know.

Su Yun's consciousness instantly sank into the Heavenly Flame Palace.

At this moment, Yan Ling had her eyes tightly closed, lying and floating in the air. Her deep red long hair drifted with the wind, and her light red gauze skirt outlined her exquisite and curvaceous body, her long, fair jade legs swaying gently in the air.

Under the crimson light, she appeared exceptionally charming and moving.

When she perceived Su Yun's consciousness entering the Heavenly Flame Palace, she instantly opened her eyes, beaming with joy, and transformed into a red light, appearing before him.

"Master, Master! Do you have something to ask me?"

Su Yun: "Yan Ling, you came just in time. I want to ask, do you recognize this dao law pattern in my hand?"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and condensed that dao law pattern once again.

"So you're just asking about something!" Yan Ling's gaze dimmed, and she lowered her head slightly.

Hearing this, Su Yun turned his head and saw her somewhat disappointed expression. He smiled and said in a gentle tone, "I happen to be quite busy right now. I'll come keep you company when I have time later!"

"Then... it's a promise!"

A bright smile instantly appeared on Yan Ling's pretty face, and she was so excited she almost jumped up.

Su Yun said with certainty, "Yes, yes, it's a promise!"

"Is this the dao law pattern that Master wanted to ask about?"

Yan Ling lowered her head, looking carefully at the dao law pattern manifested in Su Yun's hand.

"Yes, do you recognize it, Yan Ling?"

"Let me think... hmm... I don't recognize it!"

"I can only tell that this pattern might be part of a Formation, and the style of this dao law pattern is somewhat like some kind of Forbidden Formation."

Yan Ling shook her head: "I'm sorry, Master, I cannot recognize what Formation it is!"

"It's fine, it's normal not to recognize it. Yan Ling, you don't need to take it to heart," Su Yun comforted her.

Hearing this, Yan Ling nodded slightly, then continued to remind him: "Although I don't know what Forbidden Formation it is, Master, if you encounter such a Forbidden Formation, you must be careful. These kinds of Forbidden Formations usually involve some kind of ancient taboo, and even ordinary Forbidden Formations have extremely large lethality."

"Alright, I understand! Then I'll be going now. I'll come keep you company when I have time!"

"Yes, yes! Take care, Master!" A hint of anticipation flashed in Yan Ling's beautiful eyes, and she nodded obediently.

After Su Yun finished speaking, he withdrew his consciousness from the Heavenly Flame Palace.

"Even Yan Ling doesn't recognize it; it seems this dao law pattern is quite something!"

Su Yun rubbed his chin, a glint flashing in his eyes.

At this point, he could only rely on the System.

After all, he didn't have a Great Master proficient in Formations by his side.

Even if there were one, they probably wouldn't understand an Immortal Formation, so it would be faster to just ask the System.

"System, scan this dao law pattern and see what its specific function is."

Su Yun's consciousness sank into his mind, and he spoke directly to the System.

The System's mechanical voice quickly sounded in his ears:

[Ding, according to this System's preliminary analysis, the dao law pattern in the Host's hand contains a portion of the Sacrifice Dao patterns. Furthermore, because this pattern is only a small part of the complete Formation, if the Host wishes to know the specific name, target, function, and other information of this Formation, it requires spending Luck Points to deduce it before it can be analyzed.]

"Hmm? Sacrifice Dao? System, then deduce it for me! I want to see what kind of Formation this is and what its purpose actually is!"

A look of solemnity flashed across Su Yun's face as he quickly said.

He now had a strong premonition that as long as he knew the specific function of the Formation composed of this dao law pattern, he might be able to see what the purpose of Jiyuan Palace's various plans was!

[Ding, the Host's current Luck Points are insufficient. According to this System's analysis, this is some kind of ancient Immortal Formation and also a type of Forbidden Formation. It is incredibly complex, so deducing this Formation requires at least 30,000,000 Luck Points.]

Su Yun: "At least thirty million? No way? System, you didn't accidentally add an extra zero, did you?"

Thirty million Luck Points? Is this for real?

If he had that many Luck Points right now, he would have taken off already, alright! Would he still need to be here thinking of countermeasures?

[Ding, after re-analysis, this System did not add an extra zero. Deducing the complete Formation through this incomplete dao law pattern does require 30,000,000 Luck Points.]

"What about an incomplete one? Deduce a third of it?"

[Ding, deducing one-third of the Formation requires at least 15,000,000 Luck Points.]

"Hiss~ still that much? A third isn't ten million Luck Points?"

"Forget it, I can't afford to deduce it! Goodbye!"

Su Yun couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

He only had one million Luck Points right now. Deduce what, exactly!

Although he did not have enough Luck Points to deduce the complete Immortal Formation, it could be seen from this that the function of this Formation was definitely not simple.

Ancient Immortal Formation? Forbidden Formation? dao law patterns containing the Sacrifice Dao? What exactly did Jiyuan Palace want to do?

Wait! Sacrifice Dao? Could it be...

Su Yun's eyes suddenly narrowed, and a peculiar thought surfaced in his mind, making his scalp tingle.

Following classic tropes, could Jiyuan Palace be planning to sacrifice the entire Haomiao Realm to achieve some goal?
